Answer: Northwestern Idaho University merging with a training academy for new professors.

Explanation: This option is the only example of a vertical merger. There are different types of mergers and acquisitions in business and each instance is for a different kind of economic benefit. A vertical merger occurs when an organization acquires or purchases another organization involved in the same line of business or service but at different stages/levels of the supply chain for the same product or service. The main purpose is usually to reduce cost of production and improve economic efficiency. A good illustration would be that of a chocolate producer and a cocoa farmer. The cocoa farmer provides the raw materials while the chocolate producer produces the final product for consumption. The chocolate producer might buy up the cocoa farm so that the cost of cultivating and harvesting cocoa and then the cost of producing chocolate from these would be wrapped up in one single organization.

The same applies to the university and the training academy. The end product are the qualified professors as far as both organizations are concerned. The training academy trains the professors and the university employs them afterwards to provide quality education to the university community. Northwestern Idaho can decide to merge with the training academy so that the cost of training and then employing the professors would be taken up by one single organization and that would result in a reduction of cost (as compared to when it’s taken up by two separate organizations).

And then, there would be improved efficiency as the university would not only undertake the training of the professors, but now the training can be tailored to their own specific needs and requirements, which would translate into better efficiency.

Answer:

Northwestern Idaho University merging with a training academy for new professors.

Explanation:

Northwestern Idaho University merging with a training academy for new professors is an example of a vertical merger.

Vertical merger is a type of business combination that involves two companies in the same kind of business but at different levels of the supply chain. Hence there is a forward or backward integration in the supply chain.

In the case of Northwestern Idaho University, it is integrating backwards to adopt a company that is a supplier, a training academy that supplies professors to universities.

Stock splits:
iren [92.7K]

Answer: a. Allow management to conserve cash, give stockholders more shares, and cause no change in total assets, liabilities, or stockholders' equity.

Explanation:

Stock Splits increase the number of shares a company without actually changing their market capitalization by simply dividing the shares available.

There are a bunch of reasons to do this but one of them is to conserve cash. By splitting stock, managers can conserve cash by not paying dividends but still proving that the company can still pay dividends. The Shareholders getting MORE stock would be the reward.

Since Stock splits don't change the Market Capitalization, they don't have an effect on Equity either and by extension Assets and Liabilities.

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Accounting equation is stated as follows:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholder's Equity

Transaction 1

Providing services will increase revenue, which will increase stockholder's equity. And since it is on account it will increase assets by the same amount = $39,000

Transaction 2

Cash received will increase cash in assets and will decrease accounts receivables in assets. Net effect = 0

Transaction 3

Purchase of equipment will increase equipment that is asset by $24,000 and further it is purchased through a note payable, it will increase liability with the same amount.

Transaction 4

This will decrease cash as paid in cash which will decrease assets, and further this will be expense for the period which will decrease the revenue and will decrease the stockholder's equity.

I believe the answer is: task-oriented listening

Listeners who prefers task-oriented listening tend to only pay attention if the communicators speak about something that relevant to the goals that they want to achieve.

Llana [10]

Answer:

April ending inventory cost= $121,875

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

Unit production cost       Absorption cost       Variable cost

Direct material                     $15                              $15

Direct labor                            10                                10  

Variable factory overhead    7.5                              7.5  

Fixed factory overhead          5

Total cost                               $37.5                       $32.5  

Finished goods inventory = 12,500 - 8,750 = 3,750

Finished goods inventory cost using absorption costing = 3,750 × $37.50

= $140,625

Finished goods inventory cost using variable costing  = 3,750 × $32.50

= $121,875
